WHAT’S NEW?
CARPETS OF QUALITY JUST WHEN YOU NEED THEM
A carpet brand made for independent retailers by leading Portuguese manufacturer Lusotufo, Causeway Carpets is focused on providing the service to match its quality carpet collections. Now, with the reduction of delivery lead times to under five days, it has taken a major step forward in achieving that.
By significantly increasing its stockholding in the UK, Causeway Carpets is able to offer competitive lead-times across its most popular styles, giving retailers the service they need to match customer expectations.
“Improving our service has been the priority,” said Richard Moore, commercial director. “We know that our growing network of independent retailers rely on great service and so we have worked behind the scenes to make that a reality. We’re now able to provide cut lengths of our most popular collections in less than a week through Alliance Flooring Distribution, giving us the reliability of one of the UK’s most trusted logistics providers.”
The company has also invested heavily in its website and offers a free sample service for customers at this key research stage. Its independent retailers also benefit from the
IMPROVING LIVES AT HOUSING 2026
IVC Commercial exhibited at Housing 2026, showcasing its dedicated social housing collections that are affordable for providers and developers, and which have the ability to improve lives for tenants.
Designed to provide a durable and low maintenance solution in living areas, the Zenura collection delivers a cost- effective floor that’s easy to install. Across Zenura Style, Zenura Luxe, Zenura Ultimate and Zenura Elegance LVS, housing landlords can choose a specification to meet their requirements. In multiple widths to cut down on waste, these collections provide a safe and hygienic surface while giving tenants a warm, comfortable and stylish floor.
Jake Parks, national sales manager, said: “Thanks to budgets and rising construction costs, the need for affordable flooring solutions is at an all-time high in the sector, and we were inundated with enquiries, even with the show closing early thanks to the
heatwave. We took developers, local authorities, providers and specifiers through how choosing IVC Commercial for more than just bathrooms and kitchens can help to improve the quality of their housing in a way that’s surprisingly cost-effective and which deals with many of the on-going challenges of maintaining their stock. It was a thoroughly worthwhile show and I’m sure we’ll be back.”
IVC Commercial also offers a range of commercial-grade compact sheet vinyl flooring to provide heavy contract (Class 34) performance. Isafe 70 is an easy to clean TRL 36+ safety flooring that can be used to provide improved slip-restraint in communal areas. It comes in a range of homely effects and withstands heavy traffic. For areas where acoustics are an important consideration, Pionieer 70 offers the same exceptional durability and homelike design with 18dB of impact sound reduction.

In store, Causeway Carpets is delivering too. Choosing from either the Compact Display Unit or Multi Display Unit, retailers can customise the ranges to the needs of their customer base. Finished in premium wood veneer, with classic blue and gold branding, the displays offer a premium look in-line with the brand’s upper-mid market positioning.
“The quality of carpets made by Lusotufo is undeniable, but it’s also important to emphasise this quality through interactions and touch points with customers. Our brand, website and point of sale was developed specifically to reflect the quality of our products and to ensure a great experience for all customers. We’re pleased that our service to retailers now matches that,” said Richard.
